Their dynamic indie rock appeal and thoughtful songwriting have made Corella into something of a mainstay in the UK scene, with the band’s effervescent charm and infectious energy leading to the release of a plethora of immersive and impressive singles, the latest of which being the swaggering ‘Drifting’.

The track comes with the announcement of their upcoming debut album Once Upon a Weekend, and sets the tone in emphatic, driving fashion. The explosive and carefree nature of the track feels euphoric and engrossing from the moment that it starts, looking back on their youth with a nostalgic and loving glee as they recall their formative experiences growing up in the UK. This feeling of reckless abandon and liberation is one that many people find themselves looking back on fondly and longing for, and Corellas do a wonderful job of encapsulating the feeling on the single.

Speaking about the new offering, they said, “Drifting is all about being younger and completely carefree. Exploring the jungle that is your neighbourhood, getting up to no good with your friends and making memories that last a lifetime. This transpires through later life as you try and find your path but never seem to find it, you just bounce from day to day doing as you please as you did when you were a kid.”
